I will always vividly remember the day when my father came home from work and told me that my beloved Brooklyn Dodgers were leaving town. So whenever I read of a sports franchise folding or moving, I feel sad for the local fans who loved and supported their team.

I gotta talk to my friend Loretta tomorrow. She moved from Salt Lake City to San Antonio the last time the franchise moved. Dunno how she'll feel about Vegas.

If the team is actually being sold, and not "OMG we have to find someone to take over quick!" then spinning it will be easy

From handling much bigger deals than this for much of my career, I learned long ago that no deal is done until it's all signed, closed and fully approved.

The article makes it sound like they haven't even identified a solid buyer, much less made a deal.

And we know this has been going on for over a month already, and yet the best anyone can say is

"In a news release, the WNBA acknowledged the impending sale but stopped there.
“Negotiations with a potential buyer of the Stars team are ongoing,” WNBA spokesperson Dina Skokos said. “Once those discussions are concluded, we will provide additional information.”
The source could not say where the Stars’ new home would be."

I'd say your "scrambling to find a buyer to avoid a shutdown" may be closer to reality.

Sorry to hear this news
(Also kind of sorry to hear that Vegas is a likely destination. It doesn't seem that compatible with WNBA fans in the stands to me, but obviously I'd be happy to be wrong about that)
